MOSCOW:
Boeing displayed a Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) and a
large scale model of its newly conceived airplane,
the Boeing 7E7, at the MAKS International Aviation

Designed for corporations, governments and VIP
customers, the BBJ is a high-performance derivative
of the Boeing Next-Generation 737-700 jetliner that
can fly more than 11,110 kilometers (6,000 nautical
miles).
The Boeing 7E7 is a
super-efficient airplane jetliner on which the
company has focused its new commercial airplane
product development efforts. The 7E7 will carry
200-250 passengers on routes up to 14,814
kilometers (8,000 nautical miles).
The Boeing Moscow
Air Show exhibit will showcase several products and
services from the Boeing Commercial Airplanes and
Integrated Defense Systems business units,
including models of the International Space
